SCENE QUEEN THE B WORD By Renee Schembri BITCHES & TWITS W ith a little twit of this, and a little tweet of that, we’ve finally joined the Twitter bandwagon. BitchTwitt, to be found at (twitter.com/BitchTwitt), has been born! I was converted to join the Twitter movement recently and it was mainly because I just couldn’t resist the name BitchTwitt — ahh, I know, small things amuse small minds, they say. It may seem like old news to most of you social networking masters, but it’s still a conversation that surfaces at many a table. Which one do you choose? Surely there aren’t enough hours in the day to keep up to date on all forums and actually maintain a social life. I have a team working on my website and that leaves me free to Tweet, poke, slap and tickle on Facebook and churn out events. Except somewhere along the way, oops, Myspace was forgotten because hey, there actually aren’t enough hours in the day. We want to know: which one do you choose? Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, website, YouTube, email, Myspace... what happened to my place or your place? What’s social about spending your free time trying to keep up to speed with all the updates? You wish someone happy birthday, make a date, have a chat, and really there is no need for personal contact, let alone PDAs (public displays of affection). Join our forum topic “Twit or Twat?” at bitchnews.com. au and let us know which ones you use. Now enough about that — spring is in the air! If you’re a Syd- neysider like me you’ll be feeling the temperature already rising. So you know what that means... hibernation is over. Come out of the cave, put your L Word collection away, throw those Ugg boots to the back of the cupboard, and dust off those dancing shoes. As the temperature rises in Sydney the social calendar heats up too, and it’s time to shine as this little bitch slots back into its regular monthly spot. Bitch is back as a regular fixture the first Friday of every month at our new headquarters, the Oxford Art Factory. What better way to settle in than with our annual Virgo Bitch party on Friday, September 4. All Virgos get in free so come join the celebrations as it’s also another year older for me. Yep, it’s my birthday and we’re gonna party like it’s your birthday... and you’re all invited! You know it’s going to be big. All your resident DJs and performers are in the building for this one, and a few little surprises will make this one hell of a good time. Check out a sexy new live art performance from Rosa + Nu Firm crew as they get painted up in our cube. What’s that, you say? You’ll have to wait and see! Register to have your birthday bash with the crew for special offers, a reserved area, and a guest list at bitchnews.com.au. Happy birthday fellow Virgos! And thank you to the 600-plus girls who joined us at the Bitch 4th Birthday bash. We’ll see you on the dance floor this September session! lotl.com • LOTL Magazine 63
